Purpose & Process • The purpose of the consensus conference was to develop recommendations for the critical care management of patients following acute aneurysmal SAH • Experts from Europe and North America from the fields of neurosurgery, neurocritical care, neurology, interventional neuroradiology, and neuroanesthesiology were recruited based on their expertise related to each topic
Methods The GRADE System: • The quality of evidence was graded as • High = Further research is very unlikely to change confidence in the estimate of effect • Moderate= Further research is likely to have an important impact on confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate • Low = Further research is very likely to have an important impact on confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate. • Very low = Any estimate of effect is very uncertain • Recommendations were classified as strong or weak • According to the balance among benefits, risks, burden, and cost, and according to the quality of evidence
